The teams Heidenheim and Köln play at Voith-Arena in a 16th round clash of the Bundesliga. These teams have faced each other only twice recently: on May 18, 2024, which ended with Heidenheim winning (4-1), and on January 13, 2024, which ended in a draw (1-1). In this match, the home factor could play a significant role, as both teams show considerable differences in their results at home and away.

Heidenheim Analysis

After 3 wins, 2 draws, and 10 losses, the home team sits in 17th place, having earned 11 points. In their last match, they lost to FC Bayern Munich at home (0-4), after previously losing away against St. Pauli (2-1). Interestingly, this team has been performing better away than at home; they have secured 6 wins, 2 draws, and 7 losses in their last 30 away games, with 20 goals scored and 24 conceded, compared to 3 wins, 4 draws, and 8 losses at home, with 14 goals scored and 30 conceded. In the league, Heidenheim has gathered 8 points from 24 possible, after 2 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses in their last 8 home games. The team’s defensive strength has been lacking, conceding goals in the last 10 matches played in this competition. At home, there is a tendency for goals, as 8 of their last 8 league matches have finished with over 1.5 goals. Heidenheim tends to score first infrequently and has only managed to open the scoring in 2 of their last 15 Bundesliga games, from which they led at halftime in 1 and won in 1 after 90 minutes. In 15 matches in this competition, they have managed just 2 comebacks in the 13 games where they conceded first.

Heidenheim enters this encounter after a defeat, 0-4, against Bayern Munich, marking their second consecutive loss in this competition. The home team typically lines up in a 3-4-3 formation, focusing on quick transitions, especially down the flanks. In this setup, the key players for this match will likely be Adrian Beck, Marvin Pieringer, and Arijon Ibrahimović. When going on the offensive, they tend to channel their attack down the right side, making good use of the depth offered by full-back Marnon Busch. Missing from this match are Leart Paçarada, Budu Zivzivadze, Frank Feller, and Hennes Behrens, all injured.

Köln Analysis

The away team currently sits in 11th place with 16 points from 4 wins, 4 draws, and 7 losses. In their penultimate match, they lost away to Bayer 04 Leverkusen (2-0). In their last match, they lost at home to FC Union Berlin (0-1). Interestingly, this team has performed better away than at home; in their last 30 games, they have achieved 6 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses as visitors compared to 5 wins, 4 draws, and 6 losses at home. In their last 8 away league matches, Köln has recorded 2 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses, garnering 8 points from a possible 24.

In this competition, they have not won any of their last 8 matches. In their away league games, the most common halftime score has been 0-0 (3 out of 8 games). Their defensive solidity has not been their strong point, having conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches; however, their attack has been scoring regularly, managing goals in 7 of the last 10 matches in this competition. In their away matches, there tends to be few goals, as 5 of the last 8 saw fewer than 3 goals. In 15 matches in this competition, they conceded the first goal 7 times and never managed to turn the score around. In the last 19 away matches across all competitions, a notable period stands out: they scored 9 of their 20 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

Köln comes into this clash following a defeat, 0-1, against Union Berlin, marking their second straight loss in this competition. The visiting club typically lines up in a 4-3-3 tactical system, favoring a style of play based on offensive transitions. In this setup, the three most advanced players should be Jakub Kamiński, Ragnar Ache, and Jan Thielmann. When embarking on the offensive process, they tend to channel their attacks to the right side, making it easier to utilize the depth provided by full-back Sebastian Sebulonsen. Missing from this game will be Rav van den Berg, who is suspended, along with Timo Hübers, Joël Schmied, and Luca Kilian, who are all injured.
